n/a: not available. APOE, apolipoprotein E; ABCG8, ATP-binding cassette sub-family G member 8; ABCA1, ATP-binding cassette transporter A1; CETP, cholesteryl ester transfer protein. The pathogenicity thresholds for each pathogenicity prediction software are as follows: M-CAP > 0.025, PolyPhen-2 > 0.8, and SIFT <0.05.
